Cats are many people’s favorite pets; they are famous for not having the best temper and for always trying to cuddle with you. They are one of the few animals that domesticated on their own. If you own a cat, you probably know a lot about them but there are some interesting facts that just a few know about them.

If you are a cat lover and you are just as curious as us, check out the following post which is full of interesting facts and hilarious pictures of cats!

Just like our fingerprints, a cat’s nose has a unique pattern.

Cats use their tail to communicate

If a cat comes close to you and he slowly moves his tail from side to side, it means that he likes you. But if he wags his tail it means he’s upset about something. This can be very useful if you own a cat and don’t know how to tell if he’s in a good or bad mood.

The meow

It is more common for Kittens to meow because they are asking their mothers for attention. Adult cats don’t meow very often; when they do they probably want to tell us something important.

Cats can see in the dark

This is due to the fact that their eyes have a reflective layer of cells below the light receptors. It is this reflective layer of cells which makes it look like your cat’s eyes are glowing in the dark.

Cats can’t taste sweet things

This is the reason why they don’t eat sweet things. Humans enjoy five kinds of taste buds, but cats lack the amino acids that allow us to enjoy sweets.

Cats have 230 bones in their body

Humans have 206 bones in their body; a cat does not have clavicles this is why they can fit pretty much everywhere.

A cat’s brain is similar to a human’s brain

Biologically a cat’s brain is more similar to a human’s brain, compared to a dog’s brain. Cats are as smart as dogs, just in different ways. In both people and cats, the brain is composed of gray and white matter.

Cats sleep two-thirds of the day

Cats are also famous for being sleepyheads; they spend two-thirds of the day sleeping.

They have an internal GPS system

Cats can always find their way home. There have been many cases in which cats have walked hundreds of miles to find a way back home; this is thanks to their nervous system.

Cats recognize their owner’s voice

Cats do recognize their owner’s voice but decide to ignore them. If you own a cat and have called his names several times without him paying attention… well, now you know the truth!

Cats can’t recognize themselves in the mirror

Source: studioidefix

This is due to the fact that cats only recognize another living being if they can smell it. In this case, their reflection has no smell so they just ignore it.

They are always aware of their surroundings

Cats sleep approximately 15 to 18 hours a day; in spite of this, they are always aware of their surroundings. Even the slightest noise will wake him up.

Whiskers

Cat whiskers are not regular hair, they are actually touch receptors which help the cat detect and respond to changes in their surroundings.

Cats are able to survive falls from great heights because while they are falling down they spin themselves around so that their feet are facing the ground.

Overly attached cats

They have a blind spot

Cats cannot see objects well that are directly in front of them, or that are right under their nose or chins.

Great hunters

It’s in their nature, they can easily catch mice; some experts say cats are better hunters than tigers or lions.

Greeting with their tail

When a cat lifts up his tail for a certain amount of time it actually means they’re saying hi!

The purr

Some people manage to feel some satisfaction seeing things in order or maintaining a pattern. For them, being a perfectionist or having everything in their place becomes almost an obsession and when this is not the case they can get stressed.

If you are one of those who feel pleasure seeing things in order, these images will make you feel an inexplicable visual satisfaction. Take a look at these 20 pictures that you, the number one perfectionist, will definitely love!

But first, a cup of coffee

Google.

Who else can not start their day well without first having a cup of coffee? This image shows how beautiful coffee is and how delicious it tastes.

Snowball

Google.

Nothing more fun than playing with snowballs during the winter. If you have had the opportunity to do so, you will know how difficult it is to make a snowball as perfect as this one.

Perfect handwriting

Google.

The one who wrote this on the board not only has very good handwriting, he also knows how to keep the sizes and spaces of each letter, almost as if he had done it on a computer.

A cabbage with a pattern

Google.

The nature is really amazing. This cabbage seems as if there was someone who designed it according to a pattern on purpose to look like this.

A perfect slide

Google.

The slides never stop being fun no matter how old we are. It is impossible to avoid throwing yourself at them after finding one on the street. Apparently the snow also enjoys them.

A cold Coke

Google.

Nothing better than a cold soda during the summer. This glass with the shape of a real can of Coca Cola filled completely causes great satisfaction and desire to take one. I wonder, where they sold them?

A perfect square

Google.

I do not know what is better, if I eat them or leave them as decoration in the room ... Whoever has done this knows exactly how an appetizing perfect square should look.

A tower of pancakes

Google.

Pancakes are the favorite breakfast of many people and nothing better than covering them with honey. Taking the time to do each one can become tedious but the result is totally satisfying and delicious.

Breakfast is ready!

Google.

Seeing these pancakes is making it impossible to wait. We need to eat breakfast right now! And it has to definitely include pancakes with a lot of butter and honey on them!

Soft and smooth snow

Seeing the snow so smooth and perfect causes some satisfaction and desire to sit on it or touch it. Whoever did this, took his time to leave it intact.

This compartment serves a lot and more when you plan an unexpected trip. Driving for hours can be tiring and that's why it's good to bring something sweet with one.

Everyone in their place

Google.

They spend hours meditating and praying. Apparently, each person has its place, keeping the exact distance between them keeping a certain pattern in rows.

Too much coordination

Google.

It took many hours of training and concentration to achieve this coordination. No doubt everyone enjoyed his presentation very much.

Without any trace

Google.

It is almost impossible to uncover a yoghurt without the lid staining it. How will he have managed to leave no stain?

To perfection

Google.

It may seem very easy but uncovering this package and achieving this result is very complicated, as they always remain broken or not completely open.

The perfect size

Google.

This table was made with the exact measurements to place the cell phone and two drinks on the sides. I will not lose my cell phone in the car anymore.

Coordinated car needles

Google.

How long will it take you to get the needles coordinated in this direction? It does not seem so difficult, but keeping them for a long time in that place, definitely is.

Great photos of the United States in 1950’s

By: Mónica López - 11 May 2018, 18:38

Compartir en Facebook

Even if the Second World War, Cold War and racial segregation were recent events in that decade, the 50s decade is remembered as a golden age for the United States, because was the time for fashion, music and properity. We know that colorized photos were something new and people were discovering what it was to have a color photography, and that’s why all the pictures are Black and white, even if some people took the time to color them.

These 50s photos are showing us how was life in those times, where everything started to change. Denis Fraevich gave a little color to those black and white photos, knowing that tones and colors were a little different to the one that we use these days. The results are so good that we are going to feel like we are traveling on time.

Alabama, 1956

In that era racial segregation was something really difficult. It includes separation of access to facilities, services and opportunities such as housing, medical care and education.

Times Square, 1955

Times Square never has stopped surprising us and even in the 50's decade was one of the most interesting and full of life places.

New York City, 1958

Fashion was something really important in those days and people used to be dressed pretty elegant to go out for a walk. Like a magazine cover.

Fishing, 1950

We can see a little group of fishers with perfect uniforms for the occasion, it is easy think about Popeye when we see the picture.

Beauty, 1950

Thinking about beauty from the 1950's is almost impossible not thinking about curves and long legs and all the girls wanted to be like Marilyn Monroe, and of course that beautiful smile she had.

Smokey Bear, 1950

We can see the bear, this bear was the inspiration to Smokey Bear, a symbol we use to stay away from forest fires in the United States.

James Dean, 1955

James Dean was an American actor who became a popular icon and a role model for many teenagers.

Daytona Beach, 1957

Daytona Beach is a city in Volusia County, Florida, United States. The city is historically known for its beach.

Anne St. Marie, 1959

Anne St. Marie was one of the most popular model of the 50's decade and also is one of the biggest mysteries. Her style made her be noticed as a unique girl.

Watching, 1956

In 50s decade not all the people had the same Rights. Not everyone could go to all the places, as we can see in this image was difficult for them to be on the other side, is good to know that everything changed.

The streets of San Francisco, 1957

It is almost impossible not recognizing these streets, we watch them all the time on movies, series and magazines. Totally beautiful.

Car Seats

These don't look like the one we use these days, but let's be honest these are really useful and the design is really great and elegant.

TV

If we see the TV that we have at home, these are squared, in 50's decade they were round and they seem to be out of a science fiction movie.

Summer, 1954

Without any doubt, those swimsuits were really cute and fashionable and their body looked really curvy. There's anything better than having a pool for those hot days.

Parking lot, 1953

The parking lots were really different to the ones we know, this image shows how curious and different these were. It seems like the cars were about to fall.

Gwen Verdon, 1953

In this image we can see the actress and dancer, enjoying the view of this city on a rooftop in a comfy hammock. Even this made her look so unique.

A date in New York, 1957

A couple was having a date in New York city, one of the best scenarios to walk and discover new places.

Childhood, 1953

We can see a little boy enjoying the sunlight while he is playing with a duck, the duck seems to be interested on those boots.

Taxi driver, 1956

Taxis have been existing since many year ago, and are pretty useful, especially when we don't know the places or we are visiting another country.

These kind of accidents are not just a present thing but of course these happen even more often these days because of the people not paying attention on the road.

We have to admit the photo looks really cool, especially with that sunset in the background.

Girl in the garden

The squad

We all have our “squad”, a group of our closest friends and we can be as silly as we want with them. When girls meet up with their friends, they take hundreds of pictures until they get the perfect shot. In this photo, these guys look really funny acting like teenagers.

Well-deserved break

Source: aloha_bigmike

We have all been through stressful days at work or school and as soon as we get home, taking some time to relax is the best thing we can do. Girls tend to share me-time moments on social networks, and a glass of wine or champagne is a must in every picture.

Incredible! Homeless Refused to Leave His Beloved Dog Out in the Cold

Some stories about humans and animals are truly heartwarming. Bernard Holland is a man who was residing in Indianapolis, Indiana at a camp for homeless individuals.

Vía IndyStar.com

He stayed at the homeless camp no matter how intense and unpleasant the weather got. Although the weather was often extremely frigid, he never considered getting shelter because he wouldn’t have been allowed to take Oreo along with him. Oreo is the name of his dog who has been with him through thick and thin.

Vía IndyStar.com

He told Mary Stickelmaier of Horizon House (an organization for homeless individuals) that he’d only visit a shelter if Oreo was permitted, as well. Horizon House, as a result, reached out to the nearby Wigglebutt Doghouse and asked if they could give Oreo a place to stay.

Vía IndyStar.com

Wigglebutt Doghouse responded by saying that they’d not only house Oreo, but they’d also hire Bernard for a part-time position. They even said that they’d foot the bill for Oreo’s veterinary care.

Vía IndyStar.com

Bernard is at the moment working on strengthening his resume. He’s also trying to secure permanent work via “Opportunity Knocks,” a program that was set up by Horizon House.

Vía IndyStar.com

As far as work skills go, Bernard has held various positions in the maintenance field before. Check out this article’s video clip to see how far Bernard has come in such a short period of time.

It looks like things are shaping to work out just fine for Bernard and his beloved four-legged pal, Oreo. Bernard’s admiration of his canine buddy is truly inspiring.

His dedication to her is just as impressive. Bernard resides at a hotel near Wigglebutt Doghouse, Oreo’s digs for the moment. He’s immensely grateful that they’re both comfortable and safe.

Ali is a Turkish/German octogenarian who caught the eye of photographer Zoe Spawton back in 2012 when he kept walking past her workplace every day. He moved to Germany from Turkey more than forty years ago. He was once a doctor, but now he’s a tailor, although that should come as no surprise when you see his flair for fashion.

Spawton decided to start photographing him on a regular basis, and that’s what she did for the next three years until 2015.

He’s got style!

Fashion is a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories, makeup, body, or furniture. Fashion is a distinctive and often constant trend in the style in which a person dresses. We’ll also share with you interesting facts about fashion!

Nice pose!

Fashion is the prevailing styles in behavior and the newest creations of textile designers. Because the more technical term costume is regularly linked to the term "fashion", the use of the former has been relegated to special senses like fancy dress or masquerade wear, while "fashion" generally means clothing, including the study of it.

Classy!

Early Western travelers, traveling whether to Persia, Turkey, India, or China, would frequently remark on the absence of change in fashion in the respective places.

Changes in costume often took place at times of economic or social change, as occurred in ancient Rome and the medieval Caliphate, followed by a long period without major changes.

Historians, including James Laver and Fernand Braudel, date the start of Western fashion in clothing to the middle of the 14th century, though it should be noted that they tend to rely heavily on contemporary imagery and illuminated manuscripts were not common before the fourteenth century.

What a gentleman!

The most dramatic early change in fashion was a sudden drastic shortening and tightening of the male over-garment from calf-length to barely covering the buttocks, sometimes accompanied with stuffing in the chest to make it look bigger. This created the distinctive Western outline of a tailored top worn over leggings or trousers.

The pace of change accelerated considerably in the following century, and women and men's fashion, especially in the dressing and adorning of the hair, became equally complex.

Art historians are therefore able to use fashion with confidence and precision to date images, often to within five years, particularly in the case of images from the 15th century. Initially, changes in fashion led to a fragmentation across the upper classes of Europe of what had previously been a very similar style of dressing and the subsequent development of distinctive national styles.

These national styles remained very different until a counter-movement in the 17th to 18th centuries imposed similar styles once again, mostly originating from Ancien Régime France.

Though the rich usually led fashion, the increasing affluence of early modern Europe led to the bourgeoisie and even peasants following trends at a distance, but still uncomfortably close for the elites – a factor that Fernand Braudel regards as one of the main motors of changing fashion.

In the 16th century, national differences were at their most pronounced. Ten 16th century portraits of German or Italian gentlemen may show ten entirely different hats.

Though textile colors and patterns changed from year to year, the cut of a gentleman's coat and the length of his waistcoat, or the pattern to which a lady's dress was cut, changed more slowly.

Men's fashions were largely derived from military models, and changes in a European male Silhouette were galvanized in theaters of European war where gentleman officers had opportunities to make notes of foreign styles such as the "Steinkirk" cravat or necktie.

Although tailors and dressmakers were no doubt responsible for many innovations, and the textile industry certainly led many trends, the history of fashion design is normally understood to date from 1858 when the English-born Charles Frederick Worth opened the first true haute couture house in Paris.

The Haute house was the name established by the government for the fashion houses that met the industry's standards.

These fashion houses have to adhere to standards such as keeping at least twenty employees engaged in making the clothes, showing two collections per year at fashion shows, and presenting a certain number of patterns to costumers.

The idea of unisex dressing originated in the 1960s when designers such as Pierre Cardin and Rudi Gernreich created garments, such as stretch jersey tunics or leggings, meant to be worn by both males and females.

The impact of unisex expands more broadly to encompass various themes in fashion including androgyny, mass-market retail, and conceptual clothing.

Ozone depletion: a real global issue

By: sofia - 8 June 2016, 10:01

Compartir en Facebook

The ozone depletion has become a worldwide issue because the ozone layer protects the earth from harmful effects of solar radiation. Since 1970, scientists noticed that in certain areas of the Earth, the concentration of ozone in the stratosphere was lower than usual.

Recent scientific studies have shown that manufactured chemical products are responsible for the progressive destruction of the stratospheric ozone layer.

What is the ozone layer?

Source: gaofilter.com

It is a protective layer of the atmosphere that can preserve life on earth and acts as a shield to protect the earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.

Where is it located?

Source: verbiclara.wordpress.com

The ozone layer is located in the lower portion of the stratosphere, approximately 14 to 45 kilometers above the surface of the earth.

Who discovered it?

Source: en.wikipedia.org

The ozone layer was discovered in 1913 by the French physicists Charles Fabry and Henri Buisson. The ozone hole was discovered by British physicists when they realized that during 1985, the ozone levels had dropped to 10% below normal January levels for Antarctica.

Why we need to protect the ozone layer

Source: pnuma.org

We need to protect the ozone layer because it acts as a shield that absorbs ultraviolet sun rays, which can produce harmful effects on humans, such as cancer, skin aging, blindness, among other things.

Environmental issue

Source: es.123rf.com

The destruction of the ozone layer is one of the most serious environmental issues we face today; some of the consequences can cause skin cancer and damage agricultural production. Besides, we’re facing irreversible global warming and the higher temperatures are worsening many types of disasters.

The effects on our health

Source: keyword-suggestions.com

It affects the immune causing DNA damage, which can increase infectious diseases. It also causes cutaneous melanoma, known as skin cancer; damage to the eyes causing cataracts, the most common cause of blindness.

Effects on plants

Source: sophimania.pe

It causes changes in the composition of various plant species; it reduces the quality of crops, mainly tomatoes, potatoes, beets, and soybeans.

Effects on aquatic species

Source: ecologiahoy.net

The decrease in the ozone layer is damaging aquatic species such as plankton, aquatic plants, fish larvae, shrimp and crabs that are the basis of the food chain.

The effects on industrial or construction materials

Source: diario-de-un-ateo.blogspot.com

The reduction in the ozone layer also affects materials such as plastics, rubber, paint, and wood, which decrease the service life of these materials when they are exposed to heat and sun rays.

Toxic products

Nuclear explosions, nitrogen oxides, and fertilizers also affect the ozone layer. Methyl chloroform used in adhesives and solvents and Halon 121 used in fire extinguishers are components that affect the ozone layer.

Aerosol spray

Many of us have heard about the damage that aerosol spray products cause in the ozone layer. It is very important for us to stop using spray deodorant in order to stop the ozone depletion.

The International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer

Source: radionacional.com.pe

The International Day for the Preservation of the Ozone Layer held on September 16th was established by the United Nations Organization (UN) in 1994. This day was chosen to commemorate the Montreal protocol in which they discussed the gradual and mandatory removal of substances that affect the ozone layer.

"Biggest global health threat"

Source: abc.com.py

According to nrdc.org, “Today's scientists point to climate change as the biggest global health threat of the 21st century. It's a threat that impacts all of us—especially children, the elderly, low-income communities, and minorities—and in a variety of direct and indirect ways. As temperatures spike, so does the incidence of illness, emergency room visits, and death.”

How can we help?

Source: abc.com.py

There are many ways we can help stop ozone depletion; using eco-friendly products that don’t contain toxic chemicals, carpooling or using public transport, turn off the lights when you’re not using them.

The Montreal Protocol

Source: derechoaldelirioradio.wordpress.com

According to ozone.unep.org, “The Montreal Protocol includes a unique adjustment provision that enables the Parties to the Protocol to respond quickly to new scientific information and agree to accelerate the reductions required on chemicals already covered by the Protocol. These adjustments are then automatically applicable to all countries that ratified the Protocol. Since its initial adoption, the Montreal Protocol has been adjusted six times. Specifically, the Second, Fourth, Seventh, Ninth, Eleventh and Nineteenth Meetings of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol adopted, in accordance with the procedure laid down in paragraph 9 of Article 2 of the Montreal Protocol, certain adjustments and reductions of production and consumption of the controlled substances listed in the Annexes of the Protocol. These adjustments entered into force, for all the Parties, on 7 March 1991, 23 September 1993, 5 August 1996, 4 June 1998, 28 July 2000 and 14 May 2008, respectively.”

In this graphic, you can see how the ozone hole has changed over the years. The surface of the hole is represented by black circles. The red lines represent an adjustment to estimate the statistical trend showing the evolution through the years. These red lines show us how the current trend is decreasing, after reaching a peak between 2000 and 2006.

How to reverse ozone depletion

Source: investigacionyciencia.es

If we stop using depleting chemicals, we can actually reverse ozone depletion. These harmful chemicals need to stop being manufactured in order to reverse the damage that has been done in approximately 50 years.

Raise awareness

Source: salvandoelplaneta-susan.blogspot.com

We need to raise awareness among people, especially children. We can help prevent ozone depletion by changing the light bulbs at home to compact fluorescent light bulbs that will conserve energy.

Climate change

Source: contralacontaminacionenelmundo.blogspot.com

Earth’s average temperature has risen by 1.5°F in the last century. The fact that humans are responsible for recent climate change is very alarming.

Let’s take care of the planet

Deforestation, burning fossil fuels, industrial processes, and some agricultural practices also affect ozone depletion. We need to remember that we can still reverse ozone depletion; none of us want to see our planet damaged in the future.

Meatball is a Pitbull that was rescued from a shelter in Central Valley, California. Lisa Reilly spotted him in a photo posted online by Fresno Bully Rescue, he reminded her of own dog, Kitty, who had died three months earlier. When she visited the shelter, she found him sprawled in the baking sun and they fell in love right away.

“Fresno Bully Rescue did a great job nursing Meaty from the first time I saw him until I was able to bring him home,” said Reilly in an interview with The Dodo. Enjoy the lovely pictures of Meaty posted on her Instagram @loveabulllisa.

Lisa loves him very much

Meaty lives with two other rescued pit bulls, Punky and Ricardo Tubbs, as well as dachshunds Bitty and Dappe. There’s no doubt that Lisa loves her dogs very much and she reminds us how important it is to think about adopting before buying a puppy. There are thousands of dogs in shelters waiting to be adopted.

He loves spending time outdoors

"Well, he looks like a bowling ball," Reilly says. "It's hard to really tell just how short he is in person, but he's so low to the ground and wide like a Mack Truck. And he would just barrel into you like a bowling ball of dog fat when we first got him. Thus, he became known as 'The Meatball,' Meaty for short."

He can’t stop smiling

"One benefit to having a fat dog is that he's extremely treat motivated," Reilly explains. "He's also extremely toy motivated and loves to play. So he's willing to 'work' for any toy or treat, which makes taking pictures of him so easy."

Sometimes Meaty accompanies Reilly's husband to his job at the police department, so he becomes “McMeat the Crime Fighting Dog”. Meaty is really lucky to have found such a loving family.

"He's truly a mama's boy, though, and just wants to be next to me all the time," Reilly says. "It's great to have, though, as you really can't have a bad day when he's around. I'd dare anyone not to smile being near him."

Meaty is really photogenic

Now, we’ll share with you more information about Meaty’s breed. Pitbull is the common name for a type of dog. Formal breeds often considered in North America to be of the pit bull type include the American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, American Bully, and Staffordshire Bull Terrier.

Many of these breeds were originally developed as fighting dogs from cross breeding bull-baiting dogs (used to hold the faces and heads of larger animals such as bulls) and terriers.

A little love can go a long way

Source: instagram/loveabulllisa

The term pit bull is often used loosely to describe dogs with similar physical characteristics, and the morphological (physical) variation amongst "bully breed" dogs makes it difficult for anyone, even experts, to visually identify them as distinct from "non-pit bulls".

Hey there buddy!

Source: instagram/loveabulllisa

Pit bulls were created by breeding bulldogs and terriers together to produce a dog that combined the gameness and agility of the terrier with the strength of the bulldog.

Pit bulls successfully fill the role of companion dogs, police dogs, and therapy dogs.Pit bulls also constitute the majority of dogs used for illegal dog fighting in America.

Slumber party!

In an effort to counter the fighting reputation of pit bull-type dogs, in 1996 the San Francisco Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals renamed pit bull terriers to "St. Francis Terriers", so that people might be more likely to adopt them.

You clean up really well!

Pit bull breeds have become famous for their roles as soldiers, police dogs, search and rescue dogs, actors, television personalities, Seeing Eye dogs, and celebrity pets. Meaty has definitely become an Instagram celebrity.

Proud American

Historically, the Bull Terrier mix Nipper and the American Staffordshire Terrier, Pete the Pup from the Little Rascals are the most well-known. Lesser known, but still historically notable pit bulls include Billie Holiday's companion "Mister",and Helen Keller's dog "Sir Thomas".

The more the merrier

Despite their reputation, Pit Bulls aren’t considered great guard dogs by those in the know. They’re too trusting of humans, and may greet an intruder as a new friend.

Having lots of fun!

Source: instagram/loveabulllisa

A dog’s temperament depends on a variety of factors including breeding and upbringing (much like children.) A statistical analysis says that 86.8 percent of American pit bull terriers have passed their temperament testing according to the American Temperament Test Society, Inc.

Merry Christmas!

According to barkpost.com, “It costs taxpayers roughly 2 BILLION bones a year to round up, shelter and euthanize homeless animals. Wouldn’t you rather pay that tab with ruv and belly scratches?”

Lots and lots of love

Source: instagram/loveabulllisa

Science shows that dog owners are less stressed thanks to hormonal and chemical changes that occur from spending time with their pups! Do you really need more reasons to get a shelter buddy?

He looks so adorable!

Source: instagram/loveabulllisa

Did you know adopting a pup can help you lose weight? Dog owners are more active than their pet-less counterparts. (Sneaking in exercise through walks and fetch doesn’t hurt, either!)

Happy 4th of July!

5 to 7 million companion animals enter animal shelters nationwide every year. That’s so many chances for you to find a best friend.
